Many soldiers on both sides of the civil war were Irish Immigrants.  Highly regarded for their skill and courage many were high ranking officers.  After the civil war they wanted to free their country from the shackles of the British empire.  The closest target the British colony in Canada.  

Interestingly, the US government looked the other way at first, since the British helped the confederacy even though they said they were neutral.  The Irish attacks actually united separate provinces into the country of Canada!
